Not works for local file links (file:///)

Open yfdyh000 opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

Create the test.html file to local directory with <a href="1.html" target="_blank">test</a>, drag to open the link, the green box appears normally but does not open the link(s).

Unchecked lastError value: Error: Illegal URL: file:///D:/1.html ExtensionUtils.jsm:381 appears in Browser Console.

In Chrome? Needs an extra permission in the manifest file.

Came here to mention this exact issue. Hope the support for local file links get added soon.

When dragging above a file:/// and a link that normally opens, none opens. I might take a deeper look into that but you might know where I should look?

See https://github.com/cpriest/SnapLinksPlus/issues/270#issuecomment-478952565_ for a file to try it on.
